In addition to incredible protection, these bags are well-made, sustainably crafted, and the workers are paid a living wage. Doesn't get much better than that!
Made from 1680D ballistic nylon fabric and accented with supple water buffalo leather, this is a stylish and sleek bag. Perfect for easy traveling. The superior protection is a result of Gard's patented mid-bag suspension system that holds the trumpet in place, and then reinforced by 2mm thick PVC inserts. This case also comes with a rain protector that can cover the case, and a luggage tag. It could be used as a backpack, or over the shoulder. The front pouch can fit plenty of accessories as well.
Holds 3 trumpets (OR 2 trpts + picc OR 2 trpts + mutes). Can be configured to hold 1 trumpet and 1 flugel.
The optional insert upgrades allow you to add an additional trumpet on top of the other horns to maximize the space! Watch Jens Lindemann use the tacos to fit FIVE trumpets in his Gard triple case:
Total horn capacity will depend on your particular instruments, especially flugelhorn bell size and piccolo configuration.

Best double/triple case on the market!
I have taken my Gard Elite Triple case all over the world with AR Rahman, and it has a wonderful job withstanding the stress of international travel and protecting my horn from harm. Always fits in the overhead on planes (even the extremely small "American Eagle" flights here in the US...). One of the best parts of this case (in which I'm sure many who own Gard products will agree), is the storage capacity of the case. I personally have been able to fit: my trumpet, flugelhorn, mouthpiece pouch, stands, harmon mute, cup mute, plunger, greases/oils, laptop + charger, ipad, in-ear monitors, and the couch from Mary Poppins! Couldn't recommend this case more and looking forward to taking it back on the road to Saudi Arabia, Dubai, and India later this year!

Review for Triple Trumpet Bag
Austin Custom Brass and Gard together provides some of the best customer service in the industry. I am impressed with their care for their products. This case is high quality - I am very excited to travel with the Gard Elite Compact Triplet Trumpet Bag throughout the States and Europe this summer. It is compact, light and will no doubt fit into the overheads in planes!

Gard Elite Compact Triple Trumpet Bag in nylon
Love it so far. I've yet to travel extensively with it, so with that consideration the final verdict is still out. However, to this point it serves me very well. Nicely done!
